On a peaceful, gray Northwest day Joanne was interred at the Camas Cemetery.  There was no fanfare or spectacle,  just gratitude in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. She was spared the oncoming challenges of Multiple Sclerosis. 

While she will be sorely missed, there is comfort in knowing that separation from loved ones is brief and eternity is, well eternity.

Mark is grateful for the kindness all you have  have shown in this time and intends to foster those friendships when he untangles all the details before him.

As we write this final entry, thank you for your support and for caring about Joanne and Mark. There is comfort in knowing Joanne is well and Mark is working toward a full recovery.

God Bless you all.
